10 days from Cairns to Gold Coast

10 oktober 2013 - Broadbeach, Australië

On the 28st I started the 10 days trip to the south. The first days where still in Cairns. On more day at the reef and a day of. The first day at the reef I did 2 more dives. And that day was there for meeting with the others from the tour. Backnin Cairns we need to fill in some more paperwork, always fine, and then we got some roommates. My where Lousie and Kerry from Zimbabwe and Darshni from UK, sleepies for all most the hole trip. In the evening going out in Cairns. Quit ok, was the same place as before. Next day easy day, last day and I didn't want to stress. So funny to see the other 3 girls runing trow the city, they just came the night before the trip in town. I was relaxing at the room, really hot day and at the lagoon. In the evening going for dinner with hole group.

Next morning, monday, really early. I have no idea wath it is with me and early mornings at a holiday. I am having them all the time. A 10 hour busdrive was waiting and we needed to be in Airlie beach around 16 for getting on a sailing boat. The sailing boat was a old Whitbroad around the ocean boat. Named the british defender and home for the group for 24 hours. Right a eay from the haber the sails where coming and we had a nice sail trip for 1.5 hour. Just after the sun was down, which is alrady a round 18:15 we came on the spot where the other boat was laying. The group was 32 people and the boat only had room for 26 people. So a sleeping boat was there. In the evening we had a pirat party, almost every night there was a party.

Next mrning waking upp at the boat and having breakfast watching over the water and seeing the Whitsundays. First stop for this day will be Whitehaven beach, sand like flower and the water so blue. Find some amazing fish during a walk in the water around the beach. Really beautiful and I wanted to spent more time at this island but the ti is changing and we need to go. Next stop will be snorkeling before lunch. 32 people on the same spot not really super but ok. Having the oppurtunity for going in to water is everything what I need. After lunch we are going to long beach where we will stay 2 nights. This is a resort, with oppurtunity for doing some watersports. Next day I will try SUP, standing upp padeling. Rest of the dsy will be laying next to the pool and relaxing. Time is already going so fast.

After the Whitsuundays 9 people are leaving the group and the rest will go to Emu park, a stop just before we will go to the farm. This day is it already 7 days that I amhaving landsikbes. Talked to the farmasist and they are saying that I need to go to the dokter. Trying to get an oppointment in Emu park but this is not possible then it will be on saturday in Noosa. The farm is not like a european farm. The animals are not near to the farmhouse, itis 10000 acre and for every animal they need 10 acre. It is so dry right now and thee are some fires in the neighburhood and the animals are quit fare. But it is really day that I will not forget. Nice food some activities like sviping snd goat cathing. Because of my landsikness I am not trying goat cathing. It night is gonne be a late night for you're room.

Saturday we are going to Noosa and I will have my oppointment with the dokter. And yes I have some problems with vertigo on both sides. Getting some medication and exercises. Still doing them beacause I am not aloud to dive till it is gone. And I want to do 2 more dives in Sydney. But it is going better. Nooss is one of the 2 places where a lot of people going before they are going to fraiser island. And that is also what we are gonne do on sonday. Getting in a bus around 6 and driving in a 4 WD bus to Fraiser islsnd. The largest sand island of the world. Getting a walk in the rainforrest and later on a dive in lake McKenzie. Here we also having lunch. On oure way back we are taking 75 mile beach road to Noosa. I am sure that I will come back to this island for some more days.

Monday is the last day of my tour. 15 people will go to Sydney but I will stay in the Gold Coast for a week surfing and meeting Dehnee and Kenlo. But before we are ariving in the Gold Coast we are going on a boat cruise in Brisbane. Some really nice buildings and later on a ice lunch with the girls.

The rrip was good and def great for coming south. Now I am back on myself for the rest of the holiday. Ok not really because I am meeting al the time new people and Dehnee and Kenlo are here in the Gold Coast. And in the nightclub here in Surfers 3 of the guys from diving where there. Australia is quit a small country.
